Speaking in North Carolina, the former congresswoman said it’s “crucially important” for people to understand the “danger” that former President Donald Trump poses.
By Jessica Banov, The News & ObserverU.S. Rep. Liz Cheney arrives before U.S. House Select Committee's fourth hearing on its Jan. 6 investigation on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C., on Tuesday, June 21, 2022.
Cheney said because she was speaking in Durham — in the swing state of North Carolina — it’s “crucially important” for people to understand the “danger” that former GOP President Donald Trump poses. “And as a conservative, as someone who believes in and cares about the Constitution, I have thought deeply about this,” Cheney said. “And because of the danger that Donald Trump poses, not only am I not voting for Donald Trump, but I will vote for Kamala Harris.”
Cheney is the daughter of former Vice President Dick Cheney, who served in George W. Bush’s administration. She represented Wyoming in Congress from 2017 to 2023 and was chair of the House Republican Conference from 2019 to 2021.
